Hi folks,

if i am not wrong, there isn't any SF control which combines a label , a text box and a button.

What i need here is similar to PeopleLookupControl user control in StrataFlix project but very generic one.

I should bind it to a BO and bind it's label to label of BO's field.

When i hit button it will browse related BO. etc etc...

i plan to create such a control.

At this point, i want to ask to all folks whether anyone can address me good example to create such a composite control?

Kind Regards...

Hi Edhy,

if u mean PeopleLookupControl i am aware about it as i said.

But what i want to do is to create a very generic composite custom control.

Kind regards...

Hi Hector,

No, StrataFrame does not have a pre-built control that combines those three elements, so this would be something you would want to create yourself.  As you've found, StrataFlix provides a great example of creating a custom control with your requested items within it.

We use this type of control quite a bit in our medical application. In our case, we've gone the route of creating specific controls for each purpouse. In our experience, the implimentation varies enough that it is cleaner and faster to just make a custom control for each need. To make one generic control to handle each function cleanly would (for our needs) take more time and maintenance than it would save.  Obviously, your mileage may vary here, and a generic approach may suite your needs better, we just don't have one pre-built for you Smile.

Are you having any specific troubles getting started with a custom control that uses StrataFrame binding? As Edhy pointed out, the StrataFlix examples are great for getting your head around the concept, and getting started.
